Read more…Found this advertised on sunshine artist. Applied and was accepted. To be fair, they do not advertise it as a fine art show, but rather "a street festival or market". They do accept commercial vendors as well as artisans and report 200,000 attend. J

Read more…I just read read "How Many Shows in 2013" which got me thinking again about fees this time of the year. Here is the question for folks that say apply to over 50 shows a year. If the jury fee is $20 that's $1000 out of pocket. If you plan on being acc

Read more…I think we have come up with a workable, inexpensive solution for transporting most of Sherry's paintings. She made gallery pouches out of old blankets and fabric, which fit inside of separate vinyl pouches she made from material she ordered through
